A Woman's Viewpoint on This and That
Hy MBA
EVERY resident who considers interest and giving support to
Clinton his home town takes a
%great deel of pride in the way
in which the town has progressed
/ 'over the years , . •This progress
has been particularly great since
the end of the last war in so
many ways services, buildings
and population . ,
0 0 0
HOWEVER for this de'velop-
' ment, the town requires not only
the pride of its citizens, but also
their loyalty . . . And loyalty to
Clinton. is shown by deeds, not
words . . . That loyalty to your
town means taking an active
the municipal council, the
churches, the service work of the
community and lastly, but not
least, by supporting the business
firms of the town, who in their
turn, do so much to aid all pub-
lic endeavours . . .
•
IT is remarkable how the chain
of support works for the better-
ment of a community when there
are no weak links and when no
link is broken . . . Here Is a
very practical example of what
happens to $10 bill when it stays
at home, which we gleaned from

"LAST week there was a little
gathering in town of a few of our
prominent men at Eddy Jones'.
Eddy keeps a boarding house.
Around the table sat his wife,
Mrs. Jones; Tim Layman, who
runs a dry -goods store and mil-
linery shop; 'Mr. Horrigan, the
baker; Eddy Beckett, the flour,
feed and coal dealer, and Mr.
Honey, the grocer,
"When supper was over, Mr.
Jones took $10 out of his pocket
and handed to Mrs. Jones with
the remark that here was the $10
out of the $20 he had promised
her. Mrs. Jones handed it to Mr.
Lyman, saying, 'That pays for
the new hat I got at Christmas.'
"Mr. Lyman, in turn, handed
it to Mr. Honey, the grocer, re-
marking that it would just cover
his grocery account. Mr. Honey
handed it to Mr. Horrigan, re-
questing him to apply it to his
bread account, and Mr. Horrigan
passed it on to Mr. Beckett to
apply on his flour bill. *Eddy
Beckett handed .it to Mr. Jones,
asking him to credit on his board
bill.
"Mr. Jones again passed the bill
to his wife, Saying that he hed
now paid her the $20 he had
promised her. She, in turn, paid
it to Mr Horrigan to settle her
bread bill. Mr, Horrigan passed
it on to Mr. Honey to apply on
his grocery account, and he
handed to Mr. Layman to pay
for those clothes be got Last week
for the kids. Mr. Lyman passed
it back to Mr. Jones, telling him
to apply it on that note that
would be due next month.
"Mr. Jones put the bill back
in his pocket observing he had
not supposed a greenback could
go so far,
"But supposing Mrs. Jones had
bought that hat in some other
place than her home town, then
the $10 would have gone out of
town and never come back,"

JAMES E. D. LINDSAY
(By our Hayfield correspondent)
Residents of the district were
shocked on Saturday, September
16, to learn of the death of James
Eli Dougal Lindsay, whose body
was found beside the railway
tracks on the Ontario Hospital
grounds, London, at 10.30 a.m.
by F, Whaley, a railway section
man. '
Doctors attributed his death to
a heart attack suffered some
hours earlier. After spending ten
days with his brother and family
here, he had left the previous
Thursday morning to attend the
Western Fair. The remains were
taken to the Marriott Funeral
Home, St. Marys, later removed
to Ball and Mach Funeral
Home, Clinton.
The body rested at the home
of his brother, Lindsay Smith,
Blue Water Highway, Stanley
Township, where many friends
from the St. Marys district, who
were unable to attend the fun-
eral, called on Sunday to pay
their last respects.
The deceased man was born
et Bothwell, November 17, 1894,
and came as an infant to this
district where he had resided al-
most continuously until about 15
years ago. For the past 13 years
he had made the home of Fred
Jamieson, near Woodhern, his
'eadquarters.
In 1946 he spent some time in
hospital with a broken pelvis as
the result of an automobile ac-
eiclent, but as far 'as was known
